Creating richly atmospheric places that provide a sense of belonging...
Led by renowned interior designer Nicola Harding, our London-based studio skilfully creates refined and reassuringly familiar interiors that reflect and serve the people who use them.
Residential design
From city apartments to country retreats, new builds to period properties, we work with clients around the world to create atmospheric abodes that tell stories about people, provenance and place.
Commercial design
We believe that home is a feeling not a location. The hotels, restaurants and cafes we create are spaces with soul, sensitively designed to consider their history as well as their future.
Our recent interior design projects
Our portfolio encompasses residential and commercial projects of all shapes and sizes in the UK and abroad. While each place is beautifully unique, all possess that indefinable feeling of home.
